All that its been contaminated by waste water from large corporations that they proceed. Our ground water was on drinkable. Some people dont even want to use it for washing. But the Water Company keeps charging high prices for it, and the less, as if it were perfectly for and go down the noise. Many residents of becoming desperate to help us please. We are more than 150. 00 families. So say, what is the say again, i dont know, please do. Sometimes the many residents depends on whats the trucks to this device . Also, electric, im the okay. Like hopefully water will be for the people in the future. Not 1st and foremost for the off a condo growers in their own question. Thank you to see if any of the people jump on them and we currently have to use jars to wash. And then we recycle the waste water into tubs. So that we have something to Water Gardens with either the s we that look youre saving its most houses, visit the patrol region. We met with a group including rodrigo mondanca in 2017, in search of the have a condo, a suit to suit grown health and a large scale the and which keeps closing water shortages for many people in the region. You. I mean, we would say in chile, we eat all the condos for breakfast, lunch and dinner, when prepare them and a lot of different ways. Its a noble fruit for the window and it says no, and thats what turned it into the green gold when it go to where we have a car who has also become trendy among foods and ships the and its become popular on social media for the increasing the Global Demand, the service itself. But at the same time, it stands for a bit of help and extends for almost news schools. In 2017, we wanted to know how we still have a cottage affecting people in the regions where its grown. What price of they paying for this rise in Global Demand . Recada sunglasses and experienced the small firm inputs woke up. And this is eric ation come out. Whats left of it . You know, a phone dry was the source of chicago as long as the hold the decades. And then the, the so you and youre seeing the canal has been out of water for 6 years old, looking at it with 30. We Small Farmers lose the for irrigation. What now . It doesnt exist anymore. The satellite is an 11th on the canals, which i used to come from the adjacent leak low roof out as ricardo walk straight to try it out of bed with rodrigo mondanca, they reminisce about what it was like when the river ran through here the before it became a garbage dump. The man i put this yeah, the same gun. So if im being what type of hurts to see, it makes me feel powerless and disillusioned. Im also angry at people who dont want to fight back. We live in an individual, the society where people dont care about these kinds of problems with until the day they hit them in the face from them. And it would be like, i mean, i mean, it really makes me sad so many. Hes coming back and was the leader of the motor team, us Citizens Movement functioning, to protect drinking more so like what else have on the website . If i remember this river as a place of fun and recreation to we used to come down here last in the summer, been a truly pains me to see it like this. It makes me furious to perform the tassel, the, the toll code, many bridges have lost. That purpose for the wolf has disappeared. Its been diverted to the neighboring avocado plantations with thousands of heck tests of war for intensive proofs of being grown for exportation to more lucrative markets abroad. The many people in the surrounding area. Now i have to get the bullshit from tang constructs at the taxpayers expense, even those who were Small Farmers, old lives and had an awful shot night. So lets here look at this as well. Only my cat, direst a lie, im not for them. And those need very little wolf. A few years ago was one of his pride and joy grew right behind to house. I was telling me down there is where my avo coronado trees used to be about 300 of them. But they all shriveled up to you. I yeah, the i also had tons, apricots, apples and low closet. Oh yeah. Well, but there wasnt a drop left to alter them with. So they all perished was on the, on one of the both, i get my old, well, completely dried out a for them. Then eventually everything just got parched and died today. But a lot of a cut or what should is flourishing next to sort of this property. Rodriguezs a businessman, both the expensive prophecy to grow f. A cottage. Emily for the neighbor is too powerful. Heat pumps the ground water up from very d. Okay. Map for the battery. Yeah. I assume that again that were are at least 40 to 50 hectic as of right. Have a condos here . Yes. Countless kilos. Ready to be picked . Up in the middle of something, you know, hes already harvesting kilometers away in the neighboring presence of j, like the verdict is still out and another find for this time flowing from a glacial spring. Daylight is home to distribute families, fruits and pile you to agriculture has exploded since the early days of the advocate, i believe in the ninetys refugees from hate to do most of the work since the working conditions and pay on a frontier to most students for 2 years should be to personally supervisors, the manual harvest. Hes one of chillies, not just have a cato exposures. And how does he and his marketing representatives see the water shortage in for to ok, that was like the i meant to know stuff like events extremely. The fact that the way i can say, but, i mean i, well, i dont know to what extent people actually like water. But maybe the state should build more plants to, to, and river water into Drinking Water for its residents. I know that, i mean, i can think of that, i mean, but the business own is also invest money and wants to take advantage of the water. Right. Stay for that goal. So its tricky to say no, no, no that until the 20th and sent them in based on the juices, always concerned about having enough water. The forget that minute they dont know if you have. I mean a, the, a little bit funny because they save money by using as little water as possible per plantation of a tree on the quote from the ceiling. I may not be able to see the phonetic for the for the front. The film for that one, the, the saving morris has its limits to be. As a condo is associate fruits, it takes up to a 1000 liters of water to grow a single kayla 8 times more than whats needed 50 times has produced as via full have to build a big more suffices to meet the super sewage bullshit demand at the height of some of the thats the whole book and so it was on the lease is out pumping station. We use it to pump the ground water up to the hills and make the highest slowed cell for the best climate. For the cato see they grow bigger and ripen foster up there. But we have to spend a bit more on electricity for the pump system side of our martinez has to drill to dips of up to a 120 meters to find enough ground water for the tropical fruits. Huge effort but necessary for drawing avocados on such a grand scale. In this climate, the cultivation is known important pillow in the chilean economy with critics complained that the war solely needed for people in chile is being shipped to europe in the form of f. A condos. And in special refrigerator to contain is creating an even bigger ecological footprint. And thats not all of this is customers are used to funding of a car is ready to wage and the supermarket, the green on like half of toddlers, of ripened in huge temperature chambers. But she made it to you and hes a simulated leaving mostly to chance the, the right to have a title has been end up being kitchens like this one in amsterdam. The advert cato show is one of the worlds 1st restaurants fully dedicated to the fruits. Its name doctor. Here youll find carefully designed and present dishes with of a condo book is salads and type type. So young consumers, you know exactly what they want. The we both are very Health Conscious and we know that other photos are really good for you. I mean its filled with healthy bad, which are good for you guys. Really good stuff like a lauren, i have a condo on a small business. I would kind of threw over pancakes. Varies inside of pancakes as well. Thats really, really not really sweet. But the drought in shinny continues and although the potomac region has always been dried, the recent extreme lack of in in place youll note was a let the government to declare a most emergency during the summer months. The commercial avocado production continues unabated. Rodrigo mondanca and agricultural scientists by trades keeps polishing for the peoples rights to drink more so the, when the single, when the, when a rivet drawing is up, it throws the whole ecosystem out of whack. And im either, yeah, no, we dont have an operation clouds. No longer form and it rains even let, let you know you way. Is he navy then to take in seeking either low c global. I wasnt going to go because i mean something its so b is that the water cycle here has been disrupted by the big of a condo produces, and well see any of this damage to the ecosystem is completely irreversible. Man after that. And then you complete them and say youve ever seen the go on of the days when small farm is group beams, cone and potatoes. Now, as a cato, mona cultures dominate the landscape for many years work for you and his comrades full against his transformation solutions. Hence, the non profit neighborhood corporate shes, shes in charge of a well that says a 1000 residence located right next to one of the launch plantations. For this you can put on it who complains that shes constantly receiving threats and accused of stealing bullshit. All the latrice, remember this, your show me face massive pressure which are moving from you and also from the authorities. If we are threatened and discriminated against fuel because weve resisted when they tried to forced us to give our water to a private company again o c k, and the numbers that are water is for the people for the community up and the poor people really and we try to, thats what the law says. If i look over here on the phone of the waste water from the boss room and kitchen ends up here, most of the last plants for veronica has left. Cheese to make milk and cheese up. And now the only thing that remains of the limits which she keep scrolling almost as an act of defiance and whichever then will i for the fit alpha. I have hope that one day we will be better off after all, my but that one day, a politician, a president of the republic who is not corrupt, will change between constitution. Im going to match the real problem. Water must be a common good and should belong to everyone bicycles to say that one. So it wont be in the share of it all of them. Rodrigo has never stopped being public about his criticism. The actually news report shows him confronting officials and one of the many across the summit, the residents complaining about the lack of was who is one, is the power of the advocate. It produces have become a recurring event and the some is when youre drunk, is it just for the to use . They were few numbers and the road blocks with people who cannot find the police. A cause receive little attention from the shooting and associates, and rodrigo was seen as nothing but a troublemaker. Someone who was only out to disrupt the kado industry. Of the dental changed in 2019. When 1500000 people gathered in the capital santiago to protest the social justice and the right to water was choose the largest demonstration and associates. Well since the end of the dictatorship the police brucely cranked down on protest is who resisted in the beginning. But the mass demonstrations eventually all to choose political mat. Hell get on a ive done will be less. You, on the protests motivated, many ordinary citizens to seek Political Office for the 1st time. Because they wanted to address certain causes. People to see if theyre going to go. So the low and probably one of the most relevant causes is the problem with the privatization of water. And sheila, yes and how to change this is one of the i think is a within the purchase spot to process of political reform and surely and which active a slide for draco also got involved. A Constitutional Convention was tasked with writing a new constitution to the country. The several activists for the fundamental right to bullshit became elected officials. But its such a savannah on his audit in schools, if the disability because she was completely extension about who expected election in 2021 campaigned heavily in the weeks before the election hoping to play a role in replacing a constitution. The dates back to the countrys military dictatorship. Mean a mass email quoting we ordinary citizens are the best people to write this new constitution because we know what day to day life is reading like until the north side got to go. And we know the candidate doesnt protect the rights we should be guaranteed. It took it a and i did that on piece out. The likelihood treego is on a dozen thing she is was as should be privately owned. She wants to abolish the exclusive rights that have been handed to big advocate of funds. She wants to dried up rules of aids. Next to the most screen, avocado grows to become a thing of the past that are going to go through. And then again, in light of the droughts and the time of crisis review, the new constitution must play some limits on Economic Activity like the economic got the and i get them of the meetings. But its not easy to abolish cries like more for rights on its a nice or best option. A chaise dictatorship created a powerful level cultural industry that grew accustomed to holding any water for its own purposes. The very go and his comrades told us back in 2017 that the was a hasnt actually gone anyway. Its just not available to the people who need it. The most. The was a is with a green goal. Describe christmas e. As a chilean states, the regular shipment of 12 of them that seems to be seen, the people need to understand that the state is paying 3 quarters of the costs of these patients to make the single. The enterprise only pays one quarter of it. Once i go to, i guess the question is the so why is the state subsidizing contractors and to build these basins filled with the same Drinking Water with the people further down lax, thats a viable to see. That boils in c o boyd, we would radio was awarded the International Nuance of human rights award in 2019 to his efforts and does the journey noted to his remarkable courage in the fall to the fund of mental right to wilson. And surely it was a kind of recognition he had never before seen in shinning. The encourage you decided to run for office in 2021. Lets say we set up a week and so on. I can do surprised everyone by decisive pay winning in the 1st round to become governor. The final thought of isa region gives official residents is in the historic port city. The same name chiles, gateway to the world. World rico is now considered the regions, top politicians with numerous duties the spit in centralized is actual political power, is often limited to us. As the governor, im only the coordinator of the regional government. I have the power to introduce bills and i can speed up or slow down certain projects and see what he said for you a little. So have to draft an environmental policy for these region. Anything with that because that still doesnt exist within the United States and what did the government then . Despite his land slides victory, rodrigo barely controls 5 percent of the regional budget. That goes to the without quite a budgetary control. He has on the limits of the ability to launch new projects, especially when it comes to war for profit. So dont know what the, what you see about the process a company that absolutely on that day. So we sent a, you know, they little bit as its very frustrating. I have no power as far as water legislation is concerned. Timothy, do know when it comes to housing, hills or education notes, dunphy a i also have no say in agriculture a dont like whats the i only have direct influence, so i have a some 8 funds. I think that i could equal the, i think that is a be the end he hasnt yet been able to shape any real change in the distribution of foresight. And for the time being, nothing will change in patrol cool when it comes to the cultivation of avocado. Please also the north and through the situation is similar, but the city is different. The actual neighborhoods of lima are experiencing a blueberry that theres even a blueberry seems restaurants catering to the cost to the rising demand for the round blue fruit, mostly intakes and pot the.

And now 1500 Seasonal Workers come to harvest of more than 3000000 bushes. Growing plastic back skilled with homes because nothing would thrive in the hour, does it so well . Its an artificially creat should wonderland for blueberries. Loraina is the full woman responsible for the harvest, quality, the someone you may not the is already done to someone, but you have to imagine that until 2 years ago there was nothing but desert sand where were standing. And today were now harvesting tons and tons of blueberries, but its really amazing. This is cynthia being pretty.

Even being said to reduce the risk of cancer and peru has risen out of nowhere to become the worlds leading exports of the berry. The desk climate is perfect for the free farmers only have to keep an eye out for a bunch of flies and funky as gently as possible. The manager reassures us the most of our thought of the hunter list. Yeah, well we only use pesticides that have been approved, both them through the same and, and the recipient country.

It wouldnt be good to be more susceptible in the beginning. We didnt have Drinking Water here. Im just going to look, i live most helpful. Yeah, i dont. Then we talked to the mayor, but i think who supported us for tablet. They dont.

When more more blueberry farms, us browsing apple. It also the editor from more, the big i believe, refills to reach the next level, be more competitive. We like to mentally m. M to become an International Client piece, is that we need more to infrastructure products for the most companies are finding us. And as if they ask you on a unlike, should these advocate are produces the blueberry produces, improve just getting stuff it and the thinking big and great of what the new of this. How do i use the reset of all of those for a previous Infrastructure Projects improved on the web, succeeded in diverting handy and water away from the atlantic tools to pacific a model that ill, we need more of those because we can produce 4 times more blue brace them, the car need to be able to send the what that always a my hello great enables new condo, sions, with millions of bushes being planned by ceiling contracts with local meds from the surrounding area.

It gives us when a company, i dont know, we want to become a global company, and to share the profit by working with local farming communities in the year. Some of these we want to use genetic engineering because of this Innovative Technology that is a very powerful tool capable of changing peoples lives. I see, come on, is that okay .

Like when you have a percentage, im better than in. Well, you mean our association will benefit greatly from this cooperation, but creating the 2 to 3012 like that. I thought this will help the whole community. In general. Im bringing lots of Economic Activities that ive done. Its been a great pleasure for us. And a big achievement, dont say so, but no sort of us, nothing. Amend lady a load on a blueberry plantation, could usher and a much needed economic.

Any negative thoughts thanks to 3000 new jobs say i want. Yeah. Was over. So the, when i think theres more than enough fulltime, i guess the only problem is pumping the 14 kilometers from the river to here with that away. Nicole at the with the help of molten technology. I think it would be okay. Okay. See, so when through has yet to feel the consequences of water shortages choose your model, coaches, unlike shinny, with the fight for wolf is going on for years, rodrigo wants to show us one of the many illegal wells in shelley. What about, do you have a cato plantations . Do road leads to stream that still hasnt dried up the area and then hurry to read the get the a will piece next to the stream. Media is this well leads to canals that are connected to large basins, used to irrigate the plantation. Its also good to go. This well is illegal. It was built into the river bed and someone is illegally appropriating the will. So the tape also helps with on the us, the heavier reported is showing this ive called several times and nothing. Its in the folder of we need this rolling through in the village, down the road to the fiscal. You still nobody checked it on on kind of the days. Okay.

And the no Court Decision has found any of the produces inputs, all could guilty of wont affect the dispute civil war to continue to flare up, especially in the hot summer months. But i dont mean dawson cecily toil the feel that it takes united in 2012 an area loves of ation at the low league where river looked for subterranean channels diverse in water, away from the river. And anyone only candidate with you ever got to to the what i was they found 64 channels along the river base and like what the 60 full like, what you got. I mean the, thats why the river is completely dry. I will see on the ground water was diverted by the i have a condo, grow is, and thats why they never lack bosa. What else was him for the to know what the you, its made you as a condo impulses have to say in 2017. We looked, for instance, at the Worlds Largest fruit convention in berlin. One major dutch distributor has already taken action. We really need to find the right partners. Were located on the rights pulse. So from the dork or region we, as a company, we dont source for that from that region just because of the water issues that are in that location. The also is also the biggest concern to as a condo, chrome mathias schmidt, but hes only worried about whether or not hes those. Do you have a cod at least get enough to drink the, letting me down to the team . Do i say that was going to be done . Sure, no, sir, is this gas commodity .

Theyre just beginning to discover avocados. And theyre still eating them on right . Because thats why we have financing Advertising Campaigns to show the chinese how to weight them, potentially a great market for us as well. Theres a gold rush, but i have a condo, thomas, environmentalist, even more worried than before. And the bashful for worship is far from us. Active as rodrigo mondanca is doing his best to inform the citizens fonts in his new role as a representative of the state. Even though he and his fellow activists even received Death Threats.
